ESL Programs - Community ESL and College Preparatory ESL

Community ESL Courses

Community ESL has 6 levels that all cover each of the major content areas in a single class. These courses are non-credit. These classes are offered in the Aurora Language Center. You can take English (ESL) classes for beginning to advanced levels, which include practice in speaking, listening, reading, and writing, as well as grammar and vocabulary. We also have a class called "American Language and Culture" for advanced ESL students and au pairs. Other advanced classes we offer are "Grammar and Writing Bridge" and "Speaking and Pronunciation Bridge".

College Preparatory ESL Courses

College Preparatory ESL focuses on one specific language skill or aspect (grammar, reading, writing, listening, and speaking) per class, per level, with three different levels (basic, intermediate, and advanced). College Preparatory ESL is designed to aid students in gaining academic skills they will need to be successful in college-level courses. These courses are for credit. Students may be eligible for the College Opportunity Fund (COF) or financial aid.
